This piece is part of our 'Inspired by Ireland' series.

The Irish pub is truly at the heart of Irish culture. The beer may flow but it’s the tide of stories, songs and slagging that makes an Irish pub such a unique place. It’s not hard to understand why there are Irish bars in every corner of the world.

This image is of the iconic Temple Bar pub in the heart of Dublin City.

It’s hard to find yourself alone when you’re in one, whether you want to or not!

A mother doesn’t stop being a mother once her children are grown. Likewise, a child doesn’t stop being a child to someone no matter how old we get, how independent we become or how successful we might be.

We will always be our mother’s  child. It’s nice to remind our mothers that we recognise this.

This piece is the ideal gift for Mother’s Day or anytime we need to let our mothers know how much we love them.

The focus of this range is to capture the essence of the subject with the minimal use of line. The one line pieces are, as the name suggests, drawn with a single line, the pen or brush never leaving the paper creating deceptively simple images.

The sea, stretching out to the horizon, possesses a voice that calls us to consider the endless possibilities that life has to offer each and every one of us. There is a sailor in all of us, waiting to discover our own potential and possibility. We wish you well on your personal voyage.

In drawing this I wanted to capture a sense of self acceptance in the image. The subject is totally at ease with herself. There is a feeling of playfulness, freedom and abandon in her movement.

If you familiar with Leonard Cohen's song 'Tonight Will Be Fine' you will see how it influenced the piece as it was playing while I drew.

Bar 1661 opened its doors in 2019 and within a few short years (including being closed during the Covid pandemic) it was winner of Ireland's Bar of the Year 2022. Based in the heart of Dublin 7, it is named after the year Poitín as we know it was banned.

The ethos of owner Dave Mulligan is deeply rooted in the promotion of Irish Poitín through cocktail culture. Well worth a visit.
